Feature Friday - The ISU Ag 450 Farm serves as a practical education resource for the university and Department of Agricultural Education and Studies. Students and staff achieve their mission through quality and sustainable production agriculture in the midwest, farming roughly 600 acres of ownership or cash rent land and 2000-2700 acres of custom work. The farm also has a steady enrollment of 130-140 students each year. The AG450 Farm has been involved with IIC in the past b...y hosting international visitors and educating them on the possibilities within agribusiness in the U.S. Some of the most recent campaign groups include Agricultural Policies and Rural Development, Agribusiness Development for Export Markets, and Agriculture in the U.S. As always, we love the opportunity to partner with great organizations in the community! #agriculture #sustainability #naturalresources See more
